Is there a certain breed/color you have a weakness for?

I've never owned one, but I always gravitate towards calicos and torties, especially long-haired. I was at Petco today and what was up for adoption? A long-haired dilute calico! I took pictures of her and showed my husband, but he said no to a 5th cat right now. Which is probably the right call, but I still want her : (
Someday I will own a long haired calico or tortie!
And a Siamese or Tonkinese.
And a Birman.
And a Russian Blue.
And a Bengal....
Haha.

I have always loved all black cats, and tuxedos.
I love tiger stripes because of
Lynxx

The Maine Coon is awesome


My grandparents only ever had Siamese

My mother's favorite is the Ragdoll

I have always loved orange short haired cats (The longhaired oranges tend to look a bit too wild for my tastes)

Tuxedos have also always been a favorite of mine.

I like grey longhaired cats.

Really, I find a new cat every time I look that is added to my faovrites. It's mostly whatever I happen to just look at, plus my two

I love them all...really!

That being said I get weak in the knees over Siamese! (Hey, that rhymes!
)
My husband doesn't care for the wedge head types though I would love to have a sleek angular Siamese. So I have had several Siamese mixes over the years. The personality is HUGE! Thai, that we have now, decided that DH was his human. Those two are really tight. Seems to be a pattern, that they pick who they belong to. In the past I've been the lucky one....but now DH knows the love!
Then I have my tuxedo boy and I'm partial to that, too.

I have wanted a Siamese for a long time. I am also partial to black cats but I think that is because they seem to be the last ones to be adopted or worse not adopted at all.

Well I like tabbies. Black mackerel tabbies are probably my #1.

I also like cats with white paws. They're just so irresistable.

"Cow cats" (bicolor) look wonderful.

I like 'em all

I like them all too

I can't think of any one color or breed that is my favorite..I used to be a sucker for orange kitties, and I almost picked up an orange one instead of Jake (ohh god how painful it feels to think of that now!!). When I first got Jake I didn't like his colors, and I thought his baby fur was too poofy
But, something about that made me love him even more, it's hard to explain.

When I decided to get a kitten I went looking for specifically for a blue & white (only I thought it was gray & white at the time). I found Shareena, and even though I now have a mixed bag, I still love the blue & white.

For a specific breed, I'll take an abyssinian any day (who would have guessed?
). However, if I ever get another purebred cat I would definitely consider an ocicat.

Overall I prefer shorthaired cats over longhairs.

Torties and tabbies are my weaknesses. I'd love to have another tortie girl and/or a gray tabby.

I have a fondness for orange tabbies!! I also like all white cats and harlequins (white with black patches)

I'd like to get a Singapura one day....

Pretty easy to figure out my favourite breed
Can't imagine life without an Oci, particularly partial to the silvers

I'm a DSH person myself - Lola's Foofy Tail is too foofy for my tastes!


As the username implies - I love white cats. Most specifically blue eyes, then bi-colored eyes, then green eyes, then gold eyes. Not that I'm being picky.

I dearly love grey tabbies with white paws.....they'll steal my heart every time.

Before Mollipop came into our family, I had been looking at Maine Coon kittens; there's something about their looks, their fur, their eyes, their demeanor, etc. I've wanted a Maine Coon now for quite a while.

But now? I dearly love brown tabbies with cream-colored necks.....they'll steal my heart every time!
